Just curious about RTT/TTY calls.

Hi there, I wasn’t sure what this was but the icon appeared on the screen, so I looked it up. My questions are:


  1. Could it have been initiated by a caller, with an android?
  2. How long is the transcript stored?
  3. For any Legal Eagles: Can it be used as evidence in a court of law?


Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. Be well.

As I recall, Android phones have a similar feature. So, yes.

How long is the transcript stored?

iPhones store the last 100 calls in Recents. So, how long, time-wise, would depend on how many calls you make and receive on your phone.

For any Legal Eagles: Can it be used as evidence in a court of law?

That is a question you should ask a lawyer. Never take legal or medical advise from random strangers on the internet.
